After a good, long run, we have decided to close our forums in an effort to refocus attention to other sections of the site. Fortunately for you all, we're living in a time where discussion of a favorite topic now has a lot of homes. So we encourage you all to bring your ravenous love for discussion to Chuck's official Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. And, as always, you can still post comments on all News updates. Thank you for your loyalty and passion over the years. These changes will happen June 1.

Happy Birthday Amber. You are a gem and I want to write a bunch of nice clever sincere things to make you feel uber special on your special day but words falls short of the beautiful human being you are, with all your flaws, with all your quirks, with all your triumphs, and doubts, you are BATMAN!

I hadn't mentioned it on purpose hoping it would be forgotten, but I first received Jazmyn's package of pure awesome (sorry I haven't posted those pictures yet, btw)

Then today I received (yesterday? I haven't gone to bed yet, it is an hour and a half past midnight) the most touching letter I have received in years from Irina... I have read it over three times already sweetheart, thank you.

And also Imke sent me links to wonderful music today, though I don't think she knew it was the day before my birthday.

So my hopes of the shadows were dashed by all of you beautiful women and I love you all so much for it.

Yes I received it today, or like I said... it is past midnight, so I received it on the sixteenth.

The day before my birthday is always so much more to me than the day of... the anniversary of the last day I did not exist on this earth as an independent sentient creature... the day of is for jubilence, the day before for reflection. I am glad I received it on the sixteenth.

Happy birthday Amber! I can't understand people not wanting a fuss on their birthday, especially when they deserve a fuss like you do!

It's a Portland Cake!

I believe that is meant to be the St. Johns bridge at the top, next is the Fremont bridge, next the Steel bridge and then The Hawthorne bridge. I think.

We actually have about a dozen more major bridges as the Willamette River runs right through the heart of the city and the Columbia River borders the north of the city (where all the freight liners come in from crossing the pacific, hence Port-Land). There is also the Clackamas River and Tualitin Rivier, among others.

Amber, you're such a good, quality person, I mean that 1 brazilian percent. I hope you have a wonderful super happy birthday. :)

Thank you Chris. The weekend overall has been a bit of a flop, every plan fell through including OMSI for today, but we are going to OMSI next weekend instead and smoking a bacon wrapped beef roast all day today instead. I am going up to the liquor store to get kahluha and vodka for me and my friend (her birthday was this week too).

James brought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers and fancy chocolate bars and a spicy Mayan chocolate birthday cake with chili peppers on it!

You are the spirit (or soul or whatever you want to call it) of this site. Pepper, I got you some salt to go with your....well you get it.

Hhahah! I love it Mike. And stop it with that other nonsense. I don't know what I would do with out all you wonderful people who's words and thoughts to read and be confused over why you all put up with all my crazy.

Happy Birthday Amber! I hope you have a great one! I'm glad I'm getting to know you. You seem like a real, true to yourself and true to others type person. You is Good people Girl! Happy Birthday! Love you!

When I was very little my grandma told me it was illegal to pick them as they were the state flower (do not know if actually true) And I fell in love with them for it. The idea that they were something so wild and beautiful and untouchable. Free.

These are illegal to pick in Romania:
Edelweiss
Lady's slipper orchid
this flower, supposedly an orchid species, too
this flower, which only grows on one mountain in Romania
forest lily
this
globe-flowers
Romanian peony
this amazing flower
white ivy
this lotus, which only grows in a thermal lake in Romania
